Orientation Programme

International students are provided with a supportive orientation process. This starts with a  tour of the school for students, parents and/or designated caregivers.

 Orientation includes familiarising students with the following:

  • school layout
  • rules and regulations
  • counseling, support systems

 

On the student’s first day, they are placed in their home class and assigned a first-language buddy.

Over the first few weeks, the student will be assessed and placed in the appropriate support classes as needed. The International Student Director will continue to monitor the student during the first few weeks while the student settles into the class and the school. 

Parents/Caregivers and students need to know that Takapuna Normal Intermediate School has an ‘Open Door’ policy. At any time they may make an appointment to see the classroom teacher, ESOL teacher, or International Director to discuss any queries or concerns.

TNISは、生徒一人ひとりが真に支えられ、成功へと導かれる学校です。

 

インターナショナルアドバイザーや先生方はとても励ましに満ち、親身にサポートしてくださいます。娘がスクールリーダーの一人になる機会を得られたことを、私は心から誇りに思っています。先生方のご指導と支えは、娘の人生に大きな意味をもたらし、自信と自立心を育ててくださいました。TNISで過ごした学校生活を通して、娘は学業面だけでなく、社会性や人間性の面でも大きく成長し、その姿に私は深く感銘を受けています。

 

保護者として、娘がTNISで学び、成長し、のびのびと活躍できる環境に恵まれていることに、心から感謝しています。

 

TNIS is a school where students are genuinely supported and inspired to
succeed.

 

The international advisor and teachers are encouraging and supportive. I
am proud that my daughter had the opportunity to become one of the school
leaders. Their guidance and support have made a meaningful difference in
her life, helping her grow in confidence and independence. Throughout her
school years at TNIS, she has developed academically, socially, and
personally in ways that truly impress me.

 

As a parent, I feel grateful that my daughter has the chance to learn,
grow, and thrive at TNIS.

Runa’s mum, Ayano Muraishi

 Takapuna Normal Intermediate schoolは、先生、生徒たちが魅力的で、素晴らしい学校です。

　英語初心者の息子がはじめての留学を経験しています。TNISの先生、生徒たちは、親切で、留学生が学校生活を楽しく過ごせるようにサポートしてくれます。息子は、お友達も増えて、日本と違う授業に興味を持ち、充実した学校生活を送っています。担任の先生は、とても素敵な方で、息子が頑張って何かを伝えようとすると、真剣に時間をかけて聞いてくださるそうです。英語がわからなくても、何事にも前向きに取り組む姿勢を評価していただけるため、息子にとって励みになり、より一層学校生活を頑張ろうと思えています。

　生徒たちは、息子が困っていると声をかけてくれたり、英語が理解できないときは、わかりやすく説明をしてくれるそうです。学びや遊びを通じ、お友達が増え、楽しく学校に通っています。留学生担当の先生は、きめ細やかな心遣いをしてくださいます。メールや面談などで学校生活のことを相談させていただけるため、保護者としては安心して学校に通わせることができています。

"Takapuna Normal Intermediate is a wonderful school with caring teachers and students. My son, a beginner in English, is enjoying his first study abroad experience thanks to the kind support of the TNIS community. He's making friends, enjoying different styles of learning, and growing more confident each day. His teacher listens patiently and encourages him, even when communication is difficult. The students are helpful, and the support for international families is excellent. I feel very reassured as a parent."

Ryo’s mum, Erika Wada
